ken-audit skillA

ken-audit is agent-read markdown (skill) from rajnandan1/ken: Audit the whole repo for Thompson-mode violations. A ranked list of what to rewrite, delete, or take back into the trusted base..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

ken-review, repo-wide. Scan the whole tree instead of a diff. Rank findings
biggest rewrite payoff first.

## Tags

Same as ken-review:

- `rot:` unit patched past rot; next fix is a rewrite. Name the rewrite's shape.
- `layer:` wrapper/adapter/manager adding no decision. Delete, move callers down.
- `unvouched:` dependency or pasted code nobody can explain. Read it or replace it.
- `fancy:` clever where the plain form wins at this scale. Name the brute-force form.
- `ceremony:` process, abstraction, or config serving itself. Remove it.

## Hunt

Files with the densest fix-commit history (rot lives where patches pile up:
`git log --format= --name-only | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head`),
wrappers that only delegate, dependencies used for one call, hand-rolled
cleverness at small n, translate-only layers between the caller and the work,
config nobody sets.

## Output

One line per finding, ranked: `<tag> <what>. <the move>. [path]`.
End with `net: -<N> lines, -<M> layers, trusted base -<K> deps possible.`
Nothing to flag: `Sound. Ship it.`

## Boundaries

Scope: Thompson-mode method violations only. Correctness bugs, security
…

How to install

Latest version
mdr add rajnandan1/ken/ken-audit@git:20260826.e88374f
Exact content
mdr add rajnandan1/ken/ken-audit@sha256:b95d8d09c602b700

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
